ART EXHIBITION
MCBETT
DCD - Dublin Conversation Drawers
"...The theme of the fight with bureaucracy has appeared in all my work along with inquiries into the passage of time. Following from tracts in my last work I also used recycled materials - found objects - obtained from my surroundings in Dublin as a reference to the rapid changes the city has undergone and still undergoes during its passage into the new millennium through a new bureaucracy that is unable to manage, but this time the object is covered with a whitening lair..."

It's bad faith to wish good luck to an enterprise you don't support. Bad ideas should fail and good ones should succeed.

 

[mamul]

don't mind me, i just had a bout of forum tourettes.

 

[chickenham]

On a different topic. Did you ever see someone and you thought it was someone else and you shout something that the other person would have thought was funny but it wasn't them and not only would you have to explain that but you'd probably have to explain why the thing you shouted would have been funny but it's totally transgressive in a highly ironic way and just by looking at them you can tell that the person has brain anaemia but it takes a little while to even come to this conclusion and all the while you've been standing there mouthing your thoughts and the person is looking at security staff and your pants suddenly fall down.

 

[chickenham]

Have you all heard about Steve Albini?

 

[chickenham]

He's a producer-engineer guy from Chicago, used to be in Big Black, produced lots of noteworthy records. You should totally check him out and his new band Shellac.

How did this go in the end?

Had planned to get along, but couldn't get out of a dinner I had to go to...

 

[chickenham]

Best session I've had in a very long time. Whiskey and psychedelic boogie sorted out my flu for the duration, best dancing in a long time, thankfully couldn't play 'interpretive dance' masterpieces like Ruby don't take your love to town, Bat out of hell, or Bohemian rhapsody as I would certainly have died.


Has anyone here heard about The Smiths?

 

[Vinnie]

Has anyone here heard about The Smiths?

I learned in music history class about how Granny Smith set up Apple Records and her kids, John, Pete, Ringo & Nathan set up The Smiths to release their songs on the label.

 

[chickenham]

Don't be so funny! THE SMITHS ffs - Manchester, the 'eighties - paisley shirts, Morrissey and Marr, flowers and national health glasses and all those great songs: Vicar in a tutu... and all the rest.


Have you guys even heard about Brendan Kilkenny?
